Be careful with stray apostrophes

Pentagon website --

WASHINGTON, July 17, 2015 – In the world of political-military affairs, Army Gen. Martin E. Dempsey likes to say that he is “the dash.” The dash is not the name of some superhero. It is the punctuation mark found between “political” and “military” when both factors exist in a given situation. 

At the very least, General Dempsey shouldn't go any Arab countries claiming that he's "Dash."
